Venezuelan opposition legislator Gilber Caro, whose whereabouts had been unknown since an elite police unit arrested him in December, is being held in state custody and is well, his lawyer said on Tuesday. The Special Action Force (FAES) took Caro into custody on Dec. 20 in an operation the opposition described as illegal because he is protected by parliamentary immunity. Caro’s arrest came as President Nicolas Maduro’s government carried out a new wave of legal actions against opposition lawmakers just as opposition leader Juan Guaido’s campaign to oust Maduro was stalling.
